Looking at the &lt;a href="http://perlmonks.org/index.pl?node=Offering%20Plate"&gt;offering plate&lt;/a&gt;, it struck me that i would be much more inclined to donate if the offering plate were a little more like this:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Not link to 'some' other domain (&lt;a href="http://yetanother.org/"&gt;Yet Another Society&lt;/a&gt;). There is no mention of perlmonks.org on the offering page.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Make donations more direct. Maybe a little like this:&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Help perlmonks.org to buy a new webserver we desperately need.&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;table&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;What it costs&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;$ 1234,-&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;What we received so far&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;$ 678,-&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;What is left&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;$ 556,-&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;What you donate&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;$ ( &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;),-&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
